Hi. I understand your concern s. It may be pharyngitis. Do gargling if it does not settle in 3 days consult a pulmonologist via chat consult. Hope it s not blood in phlegm.

Hi. You may have throat irritation due to a viral infection or acid reflux. Brownish or yellowish specks are likely due to overnight accumulation of phlegm during sore throat.
Next Steps
Gargle your throat using lukewarm water with rock salt for atleast 3-4times a day. Report to doctor if there is persistent problem or new fever or cough. Avoid spicy and oily foods at night especially late night Avoid carbonated beverages or cold drinks Reduce coffee intake Don’t sleep immediately after having dinner. Drink plenty of water
